Here's an in depth look at what you'll receive:
Instructor's Guides
The Instructor's Guides include complete, 36-week lesson plans and notes that integrate your children's various subjects into an exciting, unified learning experience. The Instructor's Guides weave your books and materials together into a cohesive full-year 6th grade homeschool curriculum—it's your roadmap for the entire school year!
This All-Subjects Package also includes Eastern Hemisphere Notebooking Pages that help your student interact with the countries and regions you "visit" on your Sonlight F journey.
History, Geography, Bible reading and memorization
Excitement and adventure await your children in the mysterious Eastern Hemisphere, a place where 90% of the world's unevangelized people live.
Fascinating books and fun learning aids carry you to far-away places like India, China, Japan, Australia and Northern Africa and the Middle East on a quest to understand their religions, cultures and ways of life. Your children are challenged and inspired by men and women who gave up everything to carry the gospel to the other side of the world.
Help children build a firm spiritual foundation as you share daily scripture reading and scripture memorization with the included Sing the Word! - digital. Watch their personal journey with the Lord flourish as they develop their own devotional habits and dive deep into the ancient roots and origins of the Christian faith with The Radical Book for Kids.
Includes Sonlight's History / Bible / Literature F, Eastern Hemisphere (4-Day).
Literature
Sonlight offers two types of literature: Read-Alouds for parents to share with their children, and Readers for children to read on their own. The Read-Alouds offer more sophisticated story lines and rich discussion points, and the Readers offer age-appropriate reading tied directly into the history content of the program.
Language Arts
This year in 6th grade, your children will learn grammar, still-essential mechanics, how to research and work on creative expression. Their writing skills will grow as they explore different styles, learn literary analysis and take on increasingly challenging assignments.
All of your sixth grade Language Arts assignments are laid out in our Language Arts Instructor's Guide. Each lesson is scripted and includes rubrics (a simple scale so you can easily see where your child is falling on each assignment) in an easy to use format. Mechanics are explained in simple terms, and you can see realistic examples of the type of writing your children should be doing.
Includes Language Arts F (4-Day).
Spelling & Vocabulary
We include Spelling You See E: Ancient Achievements as the default spelling for your children's sixth grade year. The Instructor's Handbook contains an introduction to the philosophy behind Spelling You See and the five development stages of spelling. Using the Teacher's Guide, you will work through the 36 lessons. Your children will "chunk" the appropriate letter patterns indicated for that day's lesson while also discovering a Spotlight that introduces interesting facts about words. Also included are opportunities for copywork and writing from dictation throughout the week. Vocabulary is included with the goal of helping your students develop excellent communication skills.
Science
Includes Science F: Earth and Space Science (4-Day).
In Evolution: The Grand Experiment students will think critically while examining the mainstream teaching of evolution and highlighting inconsistencies in evolutionary thinking and affirming faith in God's design as described in the Bible. Explore the Universe in Eyewitness: Universe and learn about groundbreaking discoveries while making complex scientific topics accessible and captivating.
Learn about the environmental impact of waste, the challenges of managing trash, and the importance of recycling while reading Garbage. Students will be encouraged to think critically about their own waste habits and how they can contribute to a cleaner, healthier planet.
Weekly science experiments tie directly to the week's reading material for a more linear progression from reading to doing. Thanks to Discover & Do: Science Experiments, your end-of-week experiments reinforce and apply the concepts studied in the days previous so you can plainly see your child's developing mastery of particular science concepts.
But the learning doesn't stop there! Your students will then make connections to broader scientific ideas and go further with fun ways to apply and appreciate what they have discovered. The Science F package also includes the Discover & Do: Level F Science Experiment Videos. Included in digital-only format, these highly entertaining videos reenact all the 36 experiments your students will perform, and reinforce the concepts observed during the experiment. Filled with fascinating activities and peppered with humor, the new Discover & Do Videos bring science to life!
Galileo is the highlighted scientist.
Math
Sonlight includes Math-U-See Zeta, Level Up Set in the 6th Grade All-Subjects Package. Zeta will help your children's concepts of place value to the right of the decimal point while showing the connection between fractions and decimals. Your children will continue to learn more about place values, including decimals and how to add, subtract, multiply and divide multiple digit decimals.
